Cool story, bro.

[vamos scorcho]

his website has some crazy shit on it

 

 

you guys have to ... HAVE TO ... check out Flanger. they did some mindblowing stuff very similar to Squarepusher. on exactly the same level. higher, debatable.

cmyk is pretty classic uwe. music is better than pussy is a good album too. lol i kinda forgot i how much i fucking love him.

 

pop hd has been in my head all month

[Alcofribas]

got this last night. can't believe people on here were dissing this lol. it's fucking amazing. "ich bin meine maschine" is a personal favorite for me.

 

it's great to hear him putting out such strong material after all these years, much like the 'chre i find this era very inspiring.

only obel and phling were dissing really .. otherwise it's all love!

 

and.. wtf he was in The Lisa Carbon Trio, Flanger , etc?

i've been listening to this guys output without even being aware of it lol

[Alcofribas]

lol, Lisa carbon is his "moog lounge" project i love that shit. the "space oddity" cover is incredible.

[Blir]

I wasn't dissing! Just think it's well mediocre. Actually the biggest fault on this album is Strom. Because it's so good it makes all the other tracks look utterly shit. :)

[Alcofribas]

lol obel fu. ban pls

 

just listened to "riding the void" at a nice loud volume on my headphones. fuck me that's just incredible.

[dr lopez]

yeah. empty is my fav actually.

 

this is quickly becoming best of '13.

 

 

so far (sorry exai.... :| )

 

lol not really exai destroyed me but yeah

[Alcofribas]

totally feel ya on the nod to "ohm sweet ohm" btw. i don't think it's a sample but it does appear to be a direct homage to the "twerk

[dr lopez]

yeah i won't even start on the BOOM BOOM BOOM on the end of i love u...

 

 

 

 

 

[Alcofribas]

totally.

[vamos scorcho]

I'm with you on aoty pretty much. every song is good. the last track is incredible

[Tauhid]

I don't think I've ever heard anything like The Sound Of Decay. That track is fucking wild. I wonder what he sampled for that main groove. Really nasty.

[Alcofribas]

yeah! the album is a nice mix of cliché and innovation, i think "sound of decay" sounds both familiar and totally weird.

[xyrofen]

I quite like "Riding the Void."

[futureimage]

maybe i'm just being silly, but it's not wrong to think that the big OOOOOOOHHHHHMMMMMMMMM in Strom is the mangled sample from ohm sweet ohm? if not a sample well then obviously a nod. lol pop music obviously starts with kraftwerk for uwe

Isn't it just a timestretched/screwed up sample of him saying "Strom"? The "str-" is masked by a drum hit I think... only heard it the once on Spotify. Gotta get this.

[vamos scorcho]

I will say that "Strom" is possibly the only time I've heard vox used as bassline

yea dunno it was the first listen that smacked me in the face somehow... didn't expect that blues thing on there for shure!

gotta listen harder...

yes for sure. but the way the "oh" and "mm" sounds are divided and pitch change between the "oh" - "mm" is the same as in "ohm sweet ohm." there's no way he did not either intentionally do that or was aware of the similarity. since there are many other nods to kraftwerk on this record i'm thinking this was all quite deliberate.

 

on this note i must say that i really love the synthesized vox and vocoder uwe has been experimenting with since "liedgut." i love how the consonant sounds often fill in the snares and such. really awesome.

 

um...am i the only one who really wants the pete townsend track to disappear?

[Guest]

is that the blues track? i had to stop listening and wash my tongue the last time it came on.

[vamos scorcho]

i'm fine with "my generation." its cool

 

might be better without it though

 

i still find the last track to be the best thing ever

@phling: he means the long-nosed dude from the whoooooo, so the My Generation remix-majiggerthingy

while it's definitely not my favorite track of the lp i think it sort of fits - and i like it for reasons i've said earlier in the thread just takes me back to that µallstar shtuff
